Real bad performance when hooked up to 4k TV

[Nebell]

It works fine when connected to 1080p monitor through DVI Cable, but when I hook it up to a 4k TV through HDMI, the performance feels like my computer is running Windows 10 on 90's hardware.
It's very laggy and eventually freezes. Any idea why?

System spec:
Pentium 4560
4gb ddr4
120gb SSD
6x 1060

I probably had the same problem, when I hooked pc to monitor using hdmi, before I was using vga or dvi*i.
On you TV check in settings for Sharpness and lower it as much as you can.

Of course, these characteristics are very bad for 4k
You need a more powerful processor (you can have built-in graphics)

It was the video cards being too busy mining.
I solved it by activating iGPU and connected the tv to it.

dude just let the TV be
it's brainwashing you.. other people decide what you consume
at least with the internet you have the choice of what to consume and adjust the content according to.. in TV you're just a zombie

Well, refresh rate and response time is a thing, and there's this ''4k'' shit that actually isnt 4k at all, most of the 4k screens probably has 40hz on it thats why they are so cheap.

The answer is a 4k tv will not be the same as a dedicated PC monitor reason the monitor has specific refresh rates to run on any GPU that is why if you will buy a PC hardware specially a GPU you should still consider what kind of monitor you will use because using a low end monitor with high end GPU will be a waste of money because of the refresh rate of the monitor.

I don't use a cheap TV.

This is false. 60hz is perfectly fine for gaming. I have a 4k TV and it brings 1080Ti to its knees.
Also, TVs that support Chroma 444 are just as good as non professional monitors. And by professional monitors I mean those specifically made for perfect color accuracy for photographers etc.

My 1080TI on 4k resolution is perfect and I get a steady 60fps when it's capped to that on every game I've tried. The temperatures do get higher than if plugged into another monitor though.
